I love shooting weddings, but I was extra excited to shoot my first international wedding! Here is a gallery from the beautiful wedding weekend of Kate and Mitch at Chateau Philipe de Fay in the Normandy region of France.

The stunning backdrop of the chateau combined with a stylish bride and groom and wedding party made for a royal look and feel for the photos throughout the weekend. This gallery above shows the highlights from the rehearsal dinner, an evening pig roast for guests, and the wedding day. It’s a combination of images shot by myself and the incredibly talented photographer, Marissa McClain.

A huge thank you to Kate and Mitch for sending us over to document this special weekend! A big thanks as well to wedding planner Luic and our ace assistant, Alaina Stipcak, for making everything run smoothly.

Here are some portraits I shot this weekend of my favorite model, Alaina. I’ve been trying to experiment with different types of portrait work lately, as I’m always looking to become more versatile and well-versed as a photographer.

I wanted to go for this colorful look on seamless paper. They have a stock photography feel, but I think this relatively simple lighting set up is valuable and can be applied to many different types of work, either with models, props, or both.

Here are some images from Tom Brady’s return to Gillette Stadium in Foxboro today for this first time since serving his suspension from the National Football League. I covered the Patriots’ game against the Cincinnati Bengals for Getty Images.

Nothing too crazy in the way of action or reaction from my side of the field, the visitor’s side. The Patriots shut this one down pretty quickly in the second half, and many of the New England jubilation moments happened on the far side.

It felt great to be shooting football! I’m hoping to shoot more games this season.

Here are a few quick portraits I shot of former Major League Soccer player and current ESPN Soccer analyst, Taylor Twellman. These were shot on the set of a commercial shoot he was filming for concussion awareness among youth and sports. The need here was for a few quick stills to run with the video piece.

Nothing too crazy here in terms of lighting or set up. These are just a few looks at the same shot with some different lenses and poses. Thanks to Taylor for being so great to work with!

I spent my Saturday this weekend out in Chestnut Hill at Boston College to shoot a game between the Eagles and the Florida State Seminoles.

I was able to finish the corporate/sponsorship signage work that I was hired to shoot by the end of the first half, so I stuck around to shoot game action for myself during the second half. I haven’t shot a football game in awhile, so it was a nice change of pace during a break from baseball.

These are a few that I liked. Looking through these images again, I’m realizing I shot mostly FSU action. That’s just how the game was going by the time I started shooting in the second half. Enjoy!
